- In the USA the frequency of carriers for the devastating autosomal recessive trait of procrastination is 1/10 people. You do not procrastinate and want to have a child with another highly efficient non-procrastinator. You are worried that you both might be carriers and that your child would be a procrastinator. What is the probability that you are a carrier, AND your mate is a carrier, AND your child is procrastinator?arrow_forward3) Short tail length in cattle is caused by an X-linked recessive allele. Roan coat colour of cattle is due to co-dominance (other coat colours are red and white). a) Show the results of a cross between a bull which has a roan coat and a short tail and a white cow which is heterozygous long tail. b) What percentage of male calves will have a red coat and a short tail?arrow_forwardThe shape of a heliodor is an X-linked trait. Male heliodors inherit two X chromosomes, while the females inherit an X and a Y chromosome. The recessive allele codes for the common bell-shape while the dominant phenotype is a round shape . Hudson is a round male and has offspring with Heidi, a bell-shaped female. They already have one daughter, Hannah, who is shaped like her mother. There is [blank] % that their next child will also be bell-shaped female like Hannah.arrow_forward
- ))((())&&&@@@arrow_forwardA certain type of deafness in humans is inherited as an X-linked recessive trait. A man with this type of deafness married a normal woman, and they are expecting a child. They find out that they are distantly related. Part of the family tree is shown here.How would you advise the parents about the probability of their child being a deaf boy, a deaf girl, a normal boy, or a normal girl? Be sure to state any assumptions that you make.arrow_forwardOne family is shown in both pedigrees below. Each pedigree focuses on a different monogenic, fully penetrant phenotype. Shaded individuals affected by Phenotype 1: 3 Shaded individuals affected by Phenotype 2: a. Phenotype 1: Which modes of inheritance can be ruled out, base don't this pedigree? For each mode of inheritance listed below, either state that it is not ruled out, or describe a detail of the pedigree that allows you to rule it out. Autosomal recessive Autosomal dominant X-linked recessive X-linked dominant Y-linked b. Phenotype 2: Which modes of inheritance can be ruled out, base don't this pedigree? For each mode of inheritance listed below, either state that it is not ruled out, or describe a detail of the pedigree that allows you to rule it out.

- Tomato Plants In tomato plants, round fruit (R) is dominant to oval fruit (r). Pure breeding plants with red and round fruit (FFRR) were crossed to pure breeding plants with yellow and oval fruit (ffrr). The red and round F1 progeny were then testcrossed to plants that were homozygous recessive for both genes (ffrr) with the following results: Phenotypes Number of Offspring Red and round 2 255 Red and oval 290 Yellow and round 310 Yellow and oval 2 145 Part A: Record the phenotypes and the phenotype ratio in lowest terms. Part B: Convert the expected phenotypic ratio from Part A into the expected probability for each of the four phenotypes and record them in the table below. Calculate the probability for each of the four phenotypes observed in the cross from the data presented at the beginning of the question by dividing the number of progeny in each class by the total number of progeny and record these in the table below. (Probability = Number of Progeny in Phenotype…arrow_forwardWhat is the approximate percentage chance that individual V.2, shown in the pedigree diagram below will have inherited the X- linked recessive allele shown to be carried by his great-great-grandmother? Note: only type the number, not the percentage symbol. Answer: The chance that individual V.2 shown in the pedigree below has inherited the X-linked recessive allele shown to be carried by his great-great grandmother is approximately Blank 1 percent. 노 ㅍ먹이 12 I 마일 메인 de 먹어 요 58 ㅁ + ܡܐarrow_forwardTomato Plants In tomato plants, round fruit (R) is dominant to oval fruit (r).
